Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Welington Castillo was moved from the paternity leave list to the bereavement leave list on Friday, the team announced in a press release.

The Diamondbacks said Castillo and his wife, Kissalry, experienced complications with the birth of their second child. The team did not disclose further details.


My heart goes out to him. I couldn't imagine. I hope he takes all the time he needs.

Puts the crappy season in perspective. All the bad games were nothing compared to the sinking feeling I felt when I read this news release.

I didn't know this about bereavement leave. This is great news.

The bereavement list can be used when there is an illness as there is in this case.

By Friday night there was good news about the newborn.

"He is finally out of danger," Castillo posted on his Instagram page. "Our family is hoping we can get him home soon."

Thanks for sharing that news! I didn't know that, either.

Wow, what a Rollercoaster! This is amazing news!
I know right? I was like jeez! I'm glad I continued reading the rest of the thread, lol.

They said on the radio he was coming back to the team, so all must be going well. So glad for the Beef family.
